“Unveiling the Spotlight: Who Will Claim the Crown in SYS’s Thrilling Six-Figure Screenplay Contest 2024?”

Lights, camera, action! It’s that exhilarating time of the year again when we celebrate the creative spark of storytellers. This year’s screenplay contest brought in a treasure trove of talent, making the task of selecting the winners a real rollercoaster ride of emotions. Imagine sifting through countless scripts, each one brimming with unique stories and voices—it’s like being a kid in a candy store but with the weight of judgment on your shoulders. As a fellow screenwriter, I can attest that the journey isn’t just about finding the “best” script, but about appreciating the craft and passion behind every entry. So, without further ado, let’s dive into the illustrious list of winners and finalists who captured the hearts of our esteemed judges—there’s a lot to applaud here! LEARN MORE.

We’re excited to announce the winners and finalists from this year’s screenplay contest. A big thank you to all the screenwriters who entered. There were lots of excellent screenplays this year making our work even harder trying to figure out which screenplay deserved the award. It’s never easy trying to apply objective criteria to something as subjective as screenwriting, but that’s what we must do. As a screenwriter myself, I want to really emphasize the fact that this is in no way a “best of” or that any script is “better” than any other. Our process involves a lot of people reading a lot of scripts. All the scripts entered this year were read by numerous first round readers, and the scripts that made it into the later rounds were all read by numerous industry judges and the results here today simply reflect the response from those first round readers and industry professionals.
